I found MyBB through a forum I joined when I was like 12. I participated actively on it for a while but it gradually fizzled into a pretty much dead board. Some time after (around November 2010 I think) I made a board using FreeForums (phpBB) and eventually grew sick of the ads and everything that free forums restrict. I decided I would get my own hosting. I got some (with x10hosting to start) (and a co.cc domain) and went over to the old forum I mentioned above to see what software it ran. It was MyBB and here I am today (with real hosting and a real domain
).
@Staff, what is your posts per page view mode here at mybb? Just curious

And your most successful story with MyBB? It could be helping someone with a big issue or running a active board for a while. Go! :)
@All team: How many dishes you're able to cook ? Writing their names here would be good as well.
@Staff: What age you started to learn or got your first ever PC (computer) ? Just curious. I got exactly on my b'day when I was 10. Earlier, I used to learn at school or didn't had or find much use of it.
After getting it on my b'day, i.e. 8 Sept, 2004, the first thing I ever did was playing Roadrash, ha ha, might sound funny though, but there was craze about that game at those times as well.
@all: If my MyBB went to become a paid software would you stick around or move to another project?
I know it never will but it's a question

Haven't had one really
My largest board is 11 thousand something posts. It's a private board.

Of course
even if it was paid it would still be the best forum software. It'd mean I get paid to lurk on MyBB too
@Paul: When I meant got a PC means the first ever. Of course I don't have another one but I only use this atm. My brother has laptop.
I am gonna scrape (or sell it off) this Pentium 4 and buy one nicer in May.

Not many... I'm a terrible cook! Anything microwavable or from a tin is usually what I'd cook.

That must've been... '99. So 11/12 at the time. A huge white monitor, dial up, insanely bad graphics. Ah, those were the days.

Only if I get paid. I already put a lot of time in to MyBB, if it was paid software I'd have to put a lot more time in.
